Coastal Cities Resilience for Climate Change Case Study: Egyptian North Coast Cities Faculty of Urban & Regional Planning, Cairo University Journal of Urban Research, Vol. 35, Jan 2020 Coastal cities Resilience for Climate Change Case study: Egyptian North coast cities Zeinab Feisal Abdel Kader Ahmed Osama Haron Architecture dept., Faculty of Engineering Architecture dept., Faculty of Engineering Benha University and MSA University Egypt MTI University Cairo, Egypt [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Climate change is one of the most important threats facing the Mediterranean basin, and the Mediterranean coastal cities will suffer from several risks. Studies predict that these cities are threatened with drowning by 2070-2050. Intervention policies for the conservation of coastal cities are among the most important concerns for Europe and North Africa. The concept of Resilient cities is one of the recent ways to deal with natural disasters and climate change that could threaten cities in the future. The northern coastal cities are of great importance in Egyptian urbanization, Where the second capital of Egypt (Alexandria). Northern cities have about 12% of Egypt's population. These cities represent economic and social power as well as historical and humanitarian value. Despite these risks, there has been a trend towards urban expansion in the northern coastal region since the end of the last century. This paper aims at studying the impacts of climate change on Egyptian northern coastal zones and exploring the urban resilience to the effects of climate change. In this regard, the current paper discusses the concept of resilience and describes the city resilience framework. Then the research focuses on coastal cities and surveys coastal vulnerabilities to the risks of climate change. The paper addresses climate change resilience strategies by exploring various techniques applied in three international case studies. Then it surveys Egypt's coastal zones vulnerabilities to the impacts of climate change and Egyptian adaptation and mitigation attempts to climate change risks. Finally, the paper addresses challenges and opportunities of the resilience of Egyptian northern coastal zones to the impacts of climate change and suggests some recommendations. Keywords: Climate change, Coastal, Urban, Resilience, Egypt 1. Introduction Urbanization, environmental degradation, climate change, and development-related process and planning shape and configure hazards. While building and developing our cities, there is always a concern about the impact of development and climate change on such complex systems that influence our ability to understand and manage risks (Jha, Miner, & Stanton-Geddes, 2013). Coastlines are shaped by tides, waves, winds and storms so; they are considering one of the most dynamic environments on the planet. From the beginning of history, humanity was attracted to the coastal areas to harvest the benefits of food resources, transportation routes and building materials despite the risks of storms and immersion. In the recent day, the coastal zones also represent a disproportionate population growth due to the immigration, causing a rapid expansion of coastal settlements, that consequently led to expansions in agriculture and aquaculture. These reasons made the inhabitants of coastal areas fragile and increased disproportionately (Beatley, 2012). So, there is an urge for Coastal to become more resilient. 2. The concept of Resilience In the 1970s, the term “resilience” emerged in ecology to express the ability of a system to preserve or improve functionality in case of disturbance or disruption. Then the term 137 Coastal cities Resilience for Climate Change . Zeinab Feisal, Ahmed Osama, P137-153 applied to cities because of their complexity that is always adapting to changing conditions (The Rockefeller Foundation & ARUP, 2015). In case of the exposure of a certain community system or society to a risk, Resilience is defined as its resisting, accommodating and recovering capability from risk effects in a timely and efficient manner. In cities’ planning context it's introduced as a new model for urbanization and effects the way of our understanding and the management of urban planning and hazards on the urban level as well. The term Resilience in cities is acknowledged both explicitly and implicitly in the United Nations’ 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Target 1.5 aims, by 2030, “to build the resilience of the poor and those in vulnerable situations and reduce their exposure and vulnerability to climate-related extreme events and other economic, social and environmental shocks and disasters." Target 9.1 emphasizes building resilient infrastructure while target 11 aims "to make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable," and target 13.1 aims "to strengthen resilience and adaptive capacity to climate- related hazards and natural disasters." The Urban Crisis Charter of the Global Alliance for Urban Crises, presented at the World Humanitarian Summit, instantly categorizes resilience as an essential goal for the New Urban Agenda of the United Nations (Patel & Nosal, 2016). 3. City Resilience Framework It provides a framework guided with rules that could be applied to influence stakeholders' decisions making process leading to merging the management of climate and disaster risks into investments on the urban level. In the practice field, the process of resilience operationalization is a rather challenging one. fig(1) City Resilience Framework. Fig (1) "City Resilience Framework." Source: United Nations University Centre for Policy Research2016 138 Faculty of Urban & Regional Planning, Cairo University Journal of Urban Research, Vol. 35, Jan 2020 Twelve indicators on which communities depend to determine the framework of City Resilience. These indicators fall under four main sectors: Health and wellbeing, Economy and society, Infrastructure and environment, Leadership and strategy. These four sectors reflect the key values of the resilient policy. The value of each indicator varies according to the economic, social and urban status of the city. Other sub-indicators appear under these indicators and each city develops sub-indicators to suit their circumstances and their socioeconomic structures and environmental risks that may have been experienced in the past or may suffer from in the future (The Rockefeller Foundation & ARUP, 2015). 4. The resilience of Coastal cities Cities along coasts have even more severe Problems related to resiliency. The risk is constantly rising in the world’s coastal cities, when there are 21 cities out of 33 coastal ones were expected to be overpopulated by eight million people by 2015, plus it's estimated that around 100 million people now are living only 1 meter (3.28 feet) above sea level. By the year 2050, the cost of the world flooded could reach $60 billion a year. The cost of flooding in 2005 alone reached $6 billion worth of damages. Even more, after the world’s mega coastal cities seriously invest in risk mitigation, it predicted that the losses would double ten times by the year 2050. Comparing to that if we take no action at all the coast is estimated by $1 trillion. The study not only handles cities that are expected to be suffering from maximum costs due to over flooding but also deals with cities that will be exposed to a significant increase in the average annual damages. 5. Practical Lessons of resilient Coastal cities Coastal cities are cities of significant economic, social and cultural value to many countries. Therefore, three major coastal cities in three different countries were selected based on some factors. These factors are somewhat like the Egyptian case: • Economic activities on which the city depends. • Environmental risks to the city, particularly sea level rise. • The cultural and historical value of the city. The three selected cities are among the oldest in the three countries. • Selected cities are considered million cities, which is like the Egyptian case study. • The diversity of policies for these cities to face risks in order to offer different approaches. Based on these points, New York City in the USA, Melbourne in Australia and Thessaloniki in Greece were selected. Methodology of analysis of case studies: Each case will be analyzed according to these key points: • Recognizing the social, economic and urban context of the city. • Identifying the factors and risks that led to resilient policies. • Analyzing plans and strategies for the long, medium and short term • Identifying the role of community participation • Clarify the role of “infrastructure, buildings, community” in each city's resilient policy 5.1. New York, USA New York City (NYC) is one of the main cities in the USA and most populated city by 8,622,698 habitats according to USA Population report 2017 (US Census Bureau, 2017). 139 Coastal cities Resilience for Climate Change . Zeinab Feisal, Ahmed Osama, P137-153 Located on East Coast of USA, Covering 784 Km2. NYC is one of the Economic leader cities in the world, touristic city 56 million tourists recorded in 2014 (The City of New York, 2014). 5.1.1. Climate Change Risks: In October 2012, NYC faced hurricane Sandy with unmatched force. It caused many damages on different levels. Economically, the city lost $19 billion. Many neighborhoods suffered from floods. After Sandy NYC faced the new reality that the city must recover from Sandy results and must be for next Sandy with a broader range of climate change risks. According to the new projections’ sea level

Box 1029, Alexandria, Egypt b Department of Environmental Studies, Institute of Graduate Studies and Research, Alexandria University, P.O. Box 832, EL-Shatby, Alexandria, Egypt Abstract In the present study, 52 sediment samples were collected from 14 sites along the area extending from west of Alexandria (El-MAX) to the eastern side of the Rosetta promontory (the terminal of the Nile River with the Mediterranean Sea). The collected samples 226 228 40 137 were analyzed for radioactive contents. Ra, Ra, K and Cs were detected. The distribution of radionuclide activity and mass concentrations of Th and U displayed a specific pattern that reflects the mineralogical formations and beach stability. Radiological hazards were investigated by calculating the following radiological parameters: the radium equivalent, radiation hazard index and annual effective dose. It was observed that the levels of radiological parameter are higher in eastern locations than in western ones. In addition, the western side displayed radiological parameters higher than the recommended world-wide values. © 2015 The Authors.
